Peats?

I saw a thread on this almost a dozen pages back soo instead of thread necro I'd just start another one.

Obviously this isn't a wholly new idea, I'm sure Praetorian epics have been an occasional topic of discussion since going Rogue launched.

Anyway, since EATs come in pairs it seems an obvious route would be to make a Resistance and Loyalist EAT each. Some of this was First Ward inspired too.

The Resistance EAT I was thinking could be the Carnival of Light. Magic origin, and we've got Vanessa DeVore as one of the heads of the Resistance, just seems to make sense to me, make her the initial contact for a Carnival recruit.

Powers I think would be kind of a potpouri of elemental stuff, that is stuff like they'd get a fire blast, Ice AoE, Lightning Hold, maybe an Illusion pet, etc. It's just a sketchy concept so I'm not going to go into a lot of detail obviously. Secondary would be similar, support skills from different elements.

Loyalist EAT, I know has been talked about, some form of PPD like T.E.S.T or D.U.S.T, or a Clockwork (like IVy).

As an added element to PEATS, much like VEATS and HEATS having different starting contacts etc, I'd think they'd be pegged into their respective alignment and *wouldn't* be able to do spying missions, so Carnival would only be Warden/Crusader, while TEST/Clockwork would only be Power/Responsbility, and maybe a unique PEAT arc for each like the other EATS have with their own contacts.

I dunno, probably just retreading old arguments but I thought I'd toss it out there

Well, really more than just Praetorian EATS, it seems like its been more than long nough for the devs to give a new hero & villain side EAT, something that's not kheldian and something that's not arachnos.

Can't say I'd be super excited to play Rikti on any side though >>
